Strain	Treatment	No. of xxx	Bacterial concn (mean ± SD)		Sterile blood cultures (%)	Survival (%)
Strain	Treatment	No. of xxx	Liver (log₁₀ CFU/g)	Catheter (log₁₀ CFU/ml)	Sterile blood cultures (%)	Survival (%)
SE284	Control	15	9.39 ± 0.52	6.56 ± 0.65	0	0
	Daptomycin	14	1.69 ± 2.28^a	0.69 ± 1.22^a,^b	86.7^a	66.7^a
	Vancomycin	14	4.20 ± 3.12^a	3.69 ± 2.70^a	57.1^a	42.9^a
SE385	Control	14	9.93 ± 0.88	5.98 ± 0.90	0	0
	Daptomycin	15	1.66 ± 2.81^a,^b	0.42 ± 1.26^a	100^a	93.3^a
